Creating a Jewelry Organizer like the one in the picture below is one of the many workshops you can take at the Home Depot.  This time, they asked a group of bloggers, including me, to make our very own version of this same project and today I'm revealing what I came up with.

I always love to see the many different ideas for the same project, and this post it's exactly that,  you can find the links to the other Jewelry organizers at the end of this post.

This is an easy project, that you can make your own, whether by customizing its final decorating style or by making it more intricate depending on the tools you want to use to create it.

Let's take a look at what I created using these poplar boards and copper sheets that I found on sale at the Home Depot!

Ha, I bought a whole bunch of those copper sheets, I'm sure they're going to be pretty useful for coming projects.  

The tools & materials you'll need:

• 12in. x 24in. copper Aluminum sheet
• ½in. x 2in. x 48in. S4S poplar boards
• Router
• Rabbeting bit
• Miter saw or Miter Box
• Stapler
• Brad nailer
• Push points
• 1" cup hooks
• Sawtooth hangers
• Wood Glue
• Painting or staining materials

So, let me show you the twist I gave to my Jewelry Organizer:

The first step I took for creating the frames was to cut rabbets all along one side of the poplar boards, I was going for a regular picture frame look.

Note: As I said before, you can use the tools you have. I used a router, but that's not necessary. During the workshop, simple tools are always used.

| Ryobi ONE+ Trim Router | Rabbeting Bit |

I decided to put my new Ryobi Trim router to good use, and I have to tell you that I LOVED it! It's so light and easy to use, and it's always great not having those pesky cords in the way.

The depth was set at 1/8in. and the guide was also set for the cut to be at ¼in. from the edge.

|  RYOBI Miter Saw |

I went for a classic frame. Mitering the corners.

| RYOBI Brad Nailer |

Wood glue, 1¼" brad nails, and staples kept those corners looking good and strong.

After sanding and dusting the frames, I applied two coats of Rust-Oleum Vintage Teal spray paint on them. The copper sheets were also spray painted.

Glazier's Steel Push Points

Once the copper sheets and frames had dried, they were put together using push points.

Sawtooth hangers were also added.

One of my frames got a different treatment: A duck cloth with a sign on it.

Instead of one, I created a set of three.

| Pearls... Sign | transfer paper |

I couldn't agree more with Mrs. Jackie Kennedy's words: Pearls are always appropriate.

I created that little sign that I transferred onto fabric. You can download it here.

Brass-Plated Cup Hooks

One extra little shelf with tons of hooks for lots of storage. ;)

This is a project you can totally customize to your own likes and needs.
